I don't think we can conclude from this that there's anything wrong with the third-party library people... there are tradeoffs and doordash probably isn't their only user. Doordash may not be paying or contributing either. Maybe the 3rd-party library people could have sent a basic "Thanks for the feature request" reply for the sake of politeness... But lacking that polish doesn't make them "selfish".

Why would they? I mean, when was the last time you got a "thank you" message by opening a feature request to any open source project bug tracker?
